Chapter 126 – Flowers on the Cliff – 5
“Five… It is a peaceful landscape.”
Said Irina, looking at Müller through the window.
When she looked the same way, all she could see was the land that had been devastated and overturned once. It’s not a nice view to say the least. During this time, most of the farmers were also resting, so there was nothing in the fields.
Seeing Irina looking at me with a grin, she sighed.
“Oh, thank you. Please tell me that.”
“Lol… Hey hey hey!”
At my words, Irina smiled brightly. Nice
She pinched her cheek.
Still, when we first met, we spoke respectfully to each other and kept our manners, but Lee and Lee are gradually closing the distance.
It’s not that it’s not burdensome, but I also jump on it because I like beauty, but I don’t feel like rejecting it, so it’s going too fast.
“So what are you thinking?”
“What?”
Apart from the swarming aristocratic friends.
“Are you really going to live here at all?”
“Oh my goodness! It’s a living. Kyaa, I’m ashamed.”
Irina, who was trying to turn her words around, tugged at her tangled cheeks. It stretches like her rubber band.
“It hurts, it hurts! Le, Leo-sama, it hurts!”
“The wagons behind it. Even if it was a gift, I thought it was too much. What? Starting with books, personal furniture, favorite clothes, and jewelry? I also have bed mats, blankets, and pillows that I like, so please move them carefully.”
“But it’s my favorite blanket and pillow, so it’s hard to fall asleep without it!”
“Are you proud of that? I’m proud of it, really.”
“Oh, I think I’ll be able to sleep well if Leo-sama hugs me every night…”
I pinched Irina’s blushing cheeks once more. Ugya Gyaa Gyaa Seeing Irina screaming at her, she let out a sigh.
“Are you sure you want to marry me?”
No, that’s not even a problem.
Things are different with Triana. Her family is ruined, but her bloodline lives on. It’s not that this world doesn’t have clichés where you suffer all sorts of shame under the villain who destroyed a family that appeared like a novel on Earth, but even in such a situation, maintaining her lineage is a higher priority.
It should be said that it feels like a meeting with God.
So even if you work under me, marriage itself is not impossible, and even if you join me or become a concubine, no one insults you.
“Well, that story…”
– Knocking, rattling!
But with Irina, her situation is different.
Well, my position as the owner of the Muller estate. The rank of the same count family. Not a bad position. It is, but
“You know where I am?”
The thing is, I’m in a pretty unusual situation.
Despite being from the count’s family, her magical powers are evolving independently. Already the owner of one territory. Semi-independent from the family as the second son.
Of course, more than half of the profits from the Müller estate are sent to Franz and Boring, but this is also a position that can be sufficiently adjusted through discussion of circumstances or future agreements.
Of course, looking at this, Irina and I are in a perfect position. We don’t have bad families, we like our looks, and we have good personalities. In the past, I didn’t think it was bad to marry her.
“I’ve been contacted again this time.”
“Ugh.”
The younger sister of the Duke of Earthlane.
Alina Earthlane. Age is late 20’s. Since she had no pictures, she was only given portraits, but it would be foolish to believe in portraits of women from aristocratic families of this era.
Is that all?
Among the only two ducal families in the kingdom, other families were also contacted. The problem was that he was too young, so he honestly refused, and since the duke’s family was like that, he even received a letter from the palace about matchmaking, asking if we would introduce him.
Few marquis families also contacted me. Unfortunately, she doesn’t have a daughter of the right age, so why don’t she adopt a girl with decent magical powers and start a relationship.
The top is the same, so the bottom seems to be self-respecting, but most of the replies from the family who sent the invitation to the coming-of-age ceremony are that my daughter will go with them, so why don’t we meet them?
This was true not only in the southern region, but also in other regions, including the capital. Since the southern region is so tightly controlled by Franz and Boring, Triana is tired of responding to calls from other families who are trying to expand their influence.
Now, from my point of view, where I have to think independently about the influence of the two families, it is not bad to strengthen my connections with other families than Franz or Boring, who are not so bad. So, Count William probably wouldn’t like Irina wandering around like this, but given that she didn’t bother to stop it, she might have let her do as she pleases.
“It’s a problem for the count’s daughter-in-law to have a coming-of-age ceremony in someone else’s estate, but she continues to stay there? You can’t get married?”
“Hehe. Then, will Leo-sama be in charge?”
Irina spoke in a sultry tone, but her eyes were serious.
I asked one more time, getting closer to my eyes.
“Perhaps Jeongsil…”
“It’s okay. Leo. Just being by Leo-nim’s side is enough for me.”
I tucked Irina’s tousled hair behind her ears and looked at Irina, enjoying the touch as she buried her face in my hands.
Seeing him acting like a puppy, I also smiled quietly.
Because she likes it And when I think of her, I also have to step down from her, but I don’t want to give up on her who is by my side now.
Therefore.
“Irina.”
“Ah…”
She lifted her chin.
Small tears welled up in her eyes. While wiping it off, I covered her red-stained face.
“Sorry.”
“No, Leo-sama… I’m just happy that it’s finally happening.”
If it weren’t for me, she would have lived more freely.
Like a bird flying in the sky.
But I don’t miss the blue bird that came by my side.
“I love you.”
“Me too… I love you.”
-Side.
Layer your moist lips with lipstick.

“It is also rural.”
Driving his horse in the middle of the long procession, Enoch, looking at the ornate carriage ahead, turned his attention to the horses of others around him.
“A coming-of-age ceremony in a place like this… What the hell is Irina-sama thinking?”
“That’s right. He must be still a child.”
“…”
At the words of the men around him, Enoch just kept his mouth shut and looked ahead. Irina and the man were riding in a fancy carriage at the end of his line of sight.
“What are you going to do?”
“Mmm.”
At the words of the party talking to him, Enoch turned his gaze and shut his mouth.
How? What are you supposed to do?
Enoch was troubled by the reaction of other nobles around him.
‘Aren’t you all children?’
Of course, he’s not without complaints himself, but he knows that it’s never right to openly yell at the owner of the estate. Could it be that I couldn’t come to my senses when I saw the haemori from earlier?
“I have to watch the situation for now.”
“However…”
“As long as you’ve come this far, the coming-of-age ceremony will be held. Ruining such a coming-of-age ceremony would, aside from anything else, dishonor Irina-sama’s honor. Isn’t that what you want?”
“Yeah, that’s right.”
Only then did my dissatisfaction subside.
Holding back a sigh at the reaction of the men around him who behaved like children, Enoch looked around once more.
It is understandable that the children of the surrounding aristocrats laughed at it, saying it was a peaceful rural scene. But in the first place, it must have been just over half a year since Leoric Franz became the lord of Müller.
And in the first place…
‘To think that a nobleman from the south laughed at this scene as just rural…’
This productive force is the strength and source of the South. Should I laugh at the level of knowledge of people around me who don’t know that? Or should I blame myself for hanging out with them?
“I see Müller!”
Enoch once again held back a sigh.
I came to my senses at the words of the attendant shouting in front of me. It’s a city soon
Müller was the first, but according to the investigation, it was just an ordinary manorial city. If many things have changed with the change of the lord this time, it must be the lord that shows up well.
I slowly drove my horse looking at the walls and gates of Müller that were slowly beginning to appear.
* * *
“… This is.”
Whoa.
Arwin was amazed.
The day is still bright, but as the sun sets and the sky gradually darkens, only the city shines brightly.
Müller’s lord, Leoric Franz, who is said to have awakened the magic of the sun, is using his power.
No that’s not it
“Is this a street lamp?”
“Yeah. That’s right.”
The attendants given by Muller’s estate are also explaining the distance while riding horses.
The lights of the city that lit up the entire street were the first things he had seen even after visiting the capital several times. No, there are a lot of things that cause debt… It was the first time that the entire glass was in debt in this way.
“Awesome. It is literally the city where the sun god resides…”
A place where light overflows not only to the owner of the city, but to the entire city.
The splendid city scenery was welcoming them.
